AUGUST 25, 1929 Good Fences


Today, AUGUST 25, 1929, is a special day for two reasons. First, it's Good Fences day with Theresa at
http://run-a-roundranch.blogspot.com and

What better place than the Run-a-Round ranch to have a birthday party.  However, will not be here to celebrate with you. Left on the 24th for Hernando, MS to be and try to help my sister just getting out of the hospital from a freak accident. What makes it worse, husband has more problems than most and very limited activity. Not sure when I will be back, so don't forget me.







Blessed and thankful for another special day.

Blue Monday





Some of the best of blues can be found at backyardneighbor.typepad.com
Sorry, I will not have a blue Monday post next week.


Thanks to my neighbor, he shard this photo with me. He goes to this event each year for weeks.  It is not my type of music. What a blessing we all do have the same taste.

Since school is starting next week, thought a chuckle would be a nice way end my post today.

Some first graders were discussing a picture of a family.  One little boy in the picture had a different hair color than the other members.  One of the students suggested that he was adopted. 

A little girl said, "I know all about adoption,  I was adopted."

What does that mean to be adopted?" asked another child. 

"It means, said the girl, "that you grew in your mommy's heart instead of her tummy!"

Anything Goes Pink Saturday



Saturday's would be dull if Beverly did not allow us to share anything.  However, pink is still her favorite. Now, lets go to
http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog and see what we can find.

I will not have a Pink Saturday next week. My sister in Herando, MS is in need of someone to be with her and help for awhile. Their world is so different from mine, pray I stay sane.

Good Fences


Theresa at
 http://run-a-roundranch.blogspot.com invites you to join her and many friends. Some of the BEST worldwide fences are shown each week.

This appears to be old tin or metal pieces turned into a work of art fence.

Outdoor Wednesday


Finally have a nice outdoor Wednesday.  Got a much needed rain and cooler. The best place to go for an enjoyable day is at http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com


An interesting capture.


Two very special cousins (Sam & Layton) relaxing in a boat taking them back to dock at 50 miles an hours. They are enjoying the sunset while discussing a great, successful day fishing.

Blue Monday


After surviving the hottest day ever here(107) and heat index much worse, ready for a cool Blue Monday. Jeannie will have a variety of cool blues at backyardneighbor.typepad.com


One of many beautiful golf courses in the area.


Since everything in Texas is bigger, even the heavens opened open for us.

Good Fences



So happy to be sharing time with Theresa and all her fence friends.  It is amazing how interesting a fence can be.  Check them at http://run-a-roundranch.blogspot.com

In this area, some of the houses seem to have acres of white fences. I did not see them when I took this, but at times you can see horses around.
This was an eye catcher for me.  Vintage and new work together very well.

Outdoor Wednesday


Trust wherever you are on this Outdoor Wednesday it is cooler than in Texas.  So very hot and no relief in sight. Susan always shares some cool views at http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com

This is a loading shoot at the Stockyards in Fort Worth. The Stockyard area has been a big attraction here for many years.

Just a plain and simple sight along the freeway.

Anything Goes Pink Saturday


Sorry was not around last Saturday.  Some days are just that way.  Especially, when it is your computer.  Looking forward to seeing the great post today at http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog
I found this on the internet and thought so adorable.
A few pretty blooms in my area.  However, all of mine have dried up from the extreme heat we are having.

Good Fences


Glad to be back in the blogging world today with all of you.  Have not been around for a few days due to computer issues.  Not all have been fixed either, but told them would bring in it in another day. Computers are great when things work right.  I have missed you.  However, should I suddenly not be around, it is not me, but my computer that is ailing. Going to http://run-a-roundranch.blogspot.com and enjoy some great showings from Theresa and friends.
Plain and simple, but it works.


A grand entrance.
